    Make x86-64 boot again after the INITIAL_JIFFIES changes
    and some bug fixes. Also some work for NPTL.
    
     - Merge with i386/2.5.64-bk3
     - Fix memory leak in copy_thread
     - arch_prctl uses GDT for base if possible. Cleanup.
     - clone supports bases >32bit for SETTLS etc. %fs hardcoded now.
     - new ptrace support for 64bit TLS
     - Disable (set|get)_thread_* for 64bit processes.
     - Audit arch/x86_64 for jiffies wrap issues.
     - Fix initial jiffies problem (that caused hanging kernels)
     - FIx a few 32bit emulation bugs (sigaltstack, sigqueue)
     - Some cleanup from Pavel
     - Should compile again as UP
     - Shrink size a bit by not putting exception tables into object files.
     - Fix compilation with gcc 3.3 :- force inlining when needed
     - Work around 2.5.64-bk3 console init bug.
     - Fix some alignments in assembly code
